Synopsis

The Pyromaniac's Cookbook is a comprehensive collection of flambe dishes that ranges from drinks and appetizers to main dishes (with knowledgeable recommendations for companion wines) to desserts and flaming coffees.
Its heartwarming chapters include Cooking with Flare: how to set fire to almost anything that will burn, in several innovative ways, using a recipe for Cherries Jubilee as a case in point; How to Fire Up the Party: flaming party recipes - from Bombay Punch to Cheese Fondue - that will make you a legend in your own time; Flaming Feasts in the Grand Tradition: fiery masterpieces that include Homard Armagnac and Steak Diane; Light Up the Sky: backyard basics on the art of cooking anything, either on an open fire with wood or charcoal, or on the patio or terrace with a hibachi; and The Fiery Finish: flambe desserts, from Bananas B & B to a Lordship Sundae, that are guaranteed to fill your guests with awe and wonder.
Also included are famous flambe recipes from restaurants such as Sign of the Dove in New York, the Dorchester in London, and Brennan's in New Orleans.
